Birthday Brew
Wow.
That’s all I can say. Wow. My friends really know me all too well – and truly love me. All week long I have been blessed with an overflowing mug of malty goodness from friends wishing me a joyful birthday. As of today I have received:
- Guinness Drought
- Samuel Adams
- Shiner Bock
- Real Ale
- A selection of microbrews from the Microbrewed Beer of the Month Club. (Thanks Mom and Dad!)
In addition I already had a selection of Abita’s Turbodog and Amber on hand.
Not to be outdone, my wonderful wife gifted me with related reading material:
Isn’t she the greatest? I don’t know yet if this will be a hobby I’ll pursue. From an economical standpoint, it’s a wash. Homebrewing is purely done for entertainment and crafting pleasure.
Getting back to the beer in my home, I’d love to share a pint with ya. Sharon has this strange idea that I won’t be able to handle it all on my own. I know, after nearly six years you think she’d know me by now
. Anyway, we’ll be here all Thanksgiving week so come on by when you have some time and let’s have a toast to friendship. Prost!
